The Odd Fellows Building in Seattle is undergoing significant renovations, leading to the rebranding of the Century Ballroom as the Reverie Ballroom. Sander Raav, the former bar manager at The Tin Table, has taken over ownership, renaming the establishment The Art Table. He plans to shift the focus from food to cocktails, declaring, "We are a bar. There’s no deep fryer!" The new bar will feature contemporary art, with each table showcasing local art pieces intended to spark conversation. The Art Table's official launch is scheduled for the weekend of October 3rd through 5th, coinciding with Reverie's grand opening. Raav has already started serving drinks, although he cautions that the team is still ramping up operations. With extensive experience in the cocktail scene, including participation in competitions, Raav is equipped to handle the demands of a busy bar serving multiple ballrooms. He aims to create a dynamic environment where the art and cocktail menus evolve with the events hosted in the space.
